Mind Games by Kiersten White

Source: PublisherFia was born with flawless instincts. Her first impulse, her gut feeling, is always exactly right. Her sister, Annie, is blind to the world around her—except when her mind is gripped by strange visions of the future. Trapped in a school that uses girls with extraordinary powers as tools for corporate espionage, Annie and Fia are forced to choose over and over between using their abilities in twisted, unthinkable ways… or risking each other’s lives by refusing to obey.In a stunning departure from her New York Times bestselling Paranormalcy trilogy, Kiersten White delivers a slick, edgy, heartstoppingly intense psychological thriller about two sisters determined to protect each other—no matter the costFia is a strong character that no one would want to cross, but she cared deeply for her sister Annie. So much that she is controlled by the boarding school that she is at. Annie is an interesting character that I found intriguing. I also liked their abilities, but wish that White went into it more deeply. James' father runs the boarding school and James became a very intriguing character to me and I hope to learn more about him. Adam became an amazing character and I just loved him. The plot of Mind Games is very fast paced. I read this book very quickly and wanted more when it was done. I liked the way that Mind Games was told. It switched between Fia and Annie's perspective while alternating past and present. This book felt very original and I liked the world that White built. White's writing enchanted me and I became immersed into the story. I would recommend this book to fans of White's previous books. I can't wait for the sequel and to discover what will happen next.
